Public Protector Busisiwe Mkhwebane has denied claims that she has opened a case against her predecessor, Thuli Madonsela.

What a day, what a day!

The Democratic Alliance has lashed out at our new Public Protector for not standing up to Jacob Zuma, by choosing not to oppose his interdict to block her predecessor’s ‘state capture’ report.

Barely a week in her new position and Busisiwe Mkhwebane has already raised fears that she may be captured, which essentially feeds into the DA’s allegations that she was a spy close to President Jacob Zuma.

Our new PP, Busisiwe Mkhwebane, has reportedly ‘ordered’ her staff to switch from watching eNCA news to Gupta-owned ANN7 news.

Well, that’s one way to start your term.

Outgoing Public Protector Thuli Madonsela says president Zuma has asked that she hand over her state capture investigation to incoming PP Busisiwe Mkhwebane to complete.

ANC secretary general Gwede Mantashe had a few kind words for outgoing Public Protector Thuli Madonsela. Well, more than kind to be honest.

Arguably one of South Africa’s best-loved people, Thuli Madonsela is finishing her seven-year stint as Public Protector while president Zuma has finalised the appointment of Adv. Busisiwe Joyce Mkhwebane

Dear leader Hlaudi Motsoeneng has been demoted to just another SABC employee, with far-reaching consequences for the rest of the defunct public broadcaster.

Saying that Adv. Busisiwe Mkhwebane has big shoes to fill is a pretty big understatement and a senior political analyst went as far as saying it would be like standing in for the late Nelson Mandela.

The Democratic alliance has made some pretty damn serious accusations, claiming that PP candidate Adv. Busisiwe Mkhwebane has close ties to none other than Jacob Zuma.

Outgoing Public Protector Thuli Madonsela will be returning to practicing law, as well as channeling her energy towards social activism after her tenure ends in October.

They started with more the 50 potential candidates and finally, parliament’s ad hoc committee has chosen the person who they want to take over from Adv. Thuli Madonsela in October.

Violent protests, pre-election killings, and the selection of the new public protector will be in the spotlight in Parliament this week.

The interviews for the public protector position got off to a shaky start on Thursday, after EFF chief whip Floyd Shivambu called for the shortlisting process to be re-opened.

Thuli Madonsela’s non-renewable seven-year term as Public Protector ends in October, so who will take over from her? Have a look…

The ANC left their pet project too late, now it’s the Public Protector who’ll sort out the embattled national broadcaster.

It’s not the full amount of funding requested for the investigation, but it’s something.

Corruption Watch has welcomed the decision to allow greater public participation in the appointment of the new Public Protector.

While the ad-hoc committee charged with replacing Thuli Madonsela has started the process of trying to fill some very big shoes, ex NPA boss Vusi Pikoli has laughed at suggestions that he might be an option.

According to a report by the Sunday Times, an alleged plot to kill the Public Protector has been set in motion, leaving Madonsela fearing for her life.

Earlier this week the ANCWL attacked the Public Protector for doing her job, but Madonsela’s the last woman you want to be taking on.
